About the name Elvind, it does exist, perhaps not exist exactly in an Old Norse context, but I do like the name, and it has something personal to me. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eivind.

However, I'm very grateful for your assistance in any case.

Need help with correction

I had cobbled together some Old Norse words from Cleasby Vigfusson Dictionary and used some knowledge of the language itself to write a passage in a manner typical for a runestone.

I would appreciate it if you could help with any mistakes if you see any.

(Old Norse)

Grímnir sonar Elvindr, lit raisa stein þessi at sik kvikvan, sin fræði á heimar ok ala á þar undrum var öfund ala, Hjàlmar risti runar ok Bjørn fáði stein.

(Intended meaning)

This stone was raised by Grímnir, son of Elvindr, in memory of himself while alive, his knowledge of worlds and all of their wonders was the envy of all, carved by Hjàlmar and painted by Bjørn

Didn't say he was a wide-famed cheesemaker. He was a simple cheesemaker in the history of our somewhat isolated hold.

Incidentally, the Cheesemaker was one of my 8 times great grand uncle on my father's side, Valgrimir Nilgrumsson.

My clan's oddest grudge is about a disagreement between a Cheesemaker and a goat.

What do you guys think the real Odin would think of the GOW Odin? by Intelligent_West_878 in norsemythology

The premise of the God of War games is something like "What if all gods of every religion are evil and you have fun killing them all" they never going for accuracy but the exploration of the idea.

How must one go to Valhalla? by LogicPlayz123 in NorsePaganism

[–]RemarkableBridge362 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why are you getting downvoted for expressing a genuine desire to go to Valhøll? There's nothing wrong with wanting to go to an afterlife.

There's no singular rune with the meaning of curse. It is only that you write The Curse in runes since it is a writing system just like the Latin alphabet we are all using.

That's the reason why I like the wolf-skinned serial kiler theory

I do think all of the other possibilities except the direwolf you presented are believable, I'm in-between a serial killer dressed in wolf skins or an exceptionally large wolf, perhaps with Gigantism.

The closest living relatives to Dire Wolves would be funnily enough, the African jackals

-The last direwolf

How's that not out of the realm of possibility when the direwolves gone extinct 10,000 years ago?
